http://www.census.gov/easystats/application/ calls the jQuery Templating Plugin from http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery.templates/beta1/jquery.tmpl.js., which triggers a mixed content warning (and breaks the application in Chrome 42) when embedding EasyStats in an HTTPS page. The URL should be HTTPS or protocol-relative.

Hi Everyone,
First off, I want to congratulate you on putting together such a comprehensive and straightforward set of APIs. This is really excellent work, and it's a great way of making Census Bureau data more accessible.
However, in integrating with the Geocoding Services API, I seem to have noticed a bit of an issue: when looking up Geographies, the results are inconsistent. In particular, if I execute an identical

Hello, I recently obtained and validated my API key. However, when I attempt to enter a test URL in my browser window with my api key I receive a message stating "A valid key must be included with each data API request.

Since about mid day yesterday I started to see very slow response times. Even selecting one variable is taking approximately 10 seconds. Requesting 50 is take minutes and sometime the server returns an an error:
There was an error while running your query. We've logged the error and we'll correct it ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience.
This is a bit hard to test as there appears to be server side caching so if you

I've tried for several days to request an API key from the census developers site with no success. I have filled out the form trying a couple different email addresses and have not received any additional information. I've checked my spam folder in each of the email accounts and no results there either. What is my next step to get an api key?

I think there may be small glitch in the API for table B05006 for the 5-year ACS for 2012 -- something about the terminal, 161th variable:
The following call works fine for 2011:
http://api.census.gov/data/2011/acs5?get=B05006_161E,NAME&for=county:*&in=state:22
but when I try the same for 2012, there's trouble:

The other variables

Hi All,
I believe that the Census 2010 API documentation (http://api.census.gov/data/2010/sf1/variables.html) has an error for the table: P12A. Sex By Age (White Alone).
It appears that both P012A026 and P012A049 are attributed as Female: !! 85 years and over.
I believe that P012A026 should be 'Female' (as in the total of all females.
BTW - I have *not* checked the data as of yet. The data could be correct with

I'm trying the following call and getting nothing.
When I put it into the browser the page just hangs.
The response says the server received it and then it stops.
I'm calculating the average age of each city in the USA.
Here is the request (note I removed my key)

In the first 1990 census table, there is no variable for Amer Ind/Esk/Aleut Males 12-13 yrs. In the age by race and gender group, the variables skip from P0120131 to P0120133, so presumably P0120132 is the missing age range. Using the variable in the data call results in an unknown variable error.
